Paralipomena has been raising the attention of history of science researchers since the first decades of the twentieth-century, and its classification, as either a continuity or a break with the treatises of optics developed during the Middle Ages, has become a controversial theme. Different aspects in this debate lead to a comprehension of Kepler's work as an appreciation of several studies of optics, astronomy and natural magic available at the end of sixteenth- century. Several studies available in Kepler s times, which probably contributed for his solution of the problems with the camera obscura, are presented in this dissertation in an attempt to show that Kepler s elaboration of his camera obscura theory, presented in chapter second of Paralipomena, is a consequence of this appreciation
